And have received the holy spirit
They are still christian man
many immoral people love Jesus
all denoms claim to love Jesus but have vast differences
ok, but as a part of loving Jesus, they follow and obey his commands
you're arguing for sola fide and sola scriptura
And have received the gospel of savlation
What are His commands <:Thonk:291442234199375872>
To love god and to love others
your background is definitely showing extremely much
That is what the entirety of the commands were accordin to christ
and, I don't wanna be petty but capitalize His pronouns and names
Ok, I apologise
I'm reformed man
''to love God and to love others''
this is extremely extremely vague
what does it mean to love?
What are acts of love?
Can an unpleasurable act be out of love?
I'm talking about the greatest commandment man
Yes
thing is, many can interpret it many ways
which is why we have Eccumenial Councils
Obviously man, for brevity I am summarising heavily here
That's the thing I despise about sola scriptura
it degenerates and causes schisms in theology everywhere, ultimately making ethics completely relative
Sorry
But how
the denial of a single Truth
Which one
So you're protestant, right?
I'm Reformed
so yeah
I think that man is born into sin
Man is unable to save himself
Jesus incarnated into human history in accordance with God the Father's plan from before time
sola fide
Tell me, how do the Reformed declare an interperation of scripture infallible?
In the reformed camp, the exegetical methodology is to interepret scripture in accordance with what else is said in scripture
So where something is vague, look at in context with what is said before and after it, along with other passages in scripture
